It's great to hear from you man and thanks for your comment. It has been a long haul lately but there have been some very encouraging developments of late -- I ran 15 minutes today and have done so for a few times now! Trig!

Great to see that you are staying positive - and I can tell you that you are NOT the only one to have an injury and definitely NOT the only one to look around for any source of inspiration. Look forward to your in-depth update. After an injury - even one minute of running can mean the world. I know what it's like from personal experience. You'll get there - it'll take time, but you WILL get there. Hope all is well, my friend. Trig Phil,

Look forward to your in-depth update. After an injury – even one minute of running can mean the world. I know what it’s like from personal experience. You’ll get there – it’ll take time, but you WILL get there. Hope all is well, my friend.

It certainly has felt like a mountain for me at times. I hope that there's something I can contribute to others looking for motivation to stay/get back out there on the trails and roads and certainly, sharing Amy's story is part of that mission!

Anything that keeps a person out for a year is a tremendous mountain to overcome. My biggest issue after one of my surgeries was staying interested in the sport. I saw no point in getting back on my feet and going for a run. You're dedication to running and persistence even while being forced out is truly inspiring. Amy's story is one of true heroism, but don't discount yourself in the equation of inspiring stories. Phil, you’re “little” injury isn’t something to be passed over.
